I understand your reservations about giving sensitive information to online companies.

As soon as I paid for my essay at Custom Essays and gave them copies of my information, I got one curtasy call and then never heard from them again. It defo doesn't inspire confidence. Not to mention the writer never contacted me once in 5 days, infact, 5 days into a 10 day service, they hadn't even started my dissertation. Hence why I asked for a refund.

If you have a bad feeling about an online company, chances are your probably right.

UK Essays took a card payment without copies of my passport etc. They sent my dissertation in sections as it was being completed throughout the 10 days. THe customer service team were all English speaking and never seemed troubled no matter how many times you contacted them. I think they understand the reservations of most students when using such services and thus are a bit more empathetic when you call for the millionth time lol.

Personally, I wouldn't touch any of these other companies with a barge pole. Evem of tjeu aren't financial scammers, you can be sure it is defo not an English native or English speaking person writing up your essay.

Pay the extra cash, use UK Essays, and you'll get that peace of mind.

Hope this helps man

Lol it's all getting very heated!

Never the less, I shall continue to reort my findings for those of you wo are interested.

Re: Apendix
Transcribed interviews, completed questionaires etc are not included. I did ask for a price but did not receive a quote. No worries though.
As pheelyks pointed out, if you pay for a 10,000 word dissertation, that is what you get. Apendix isn't a massive deal, I can touch this area up myself, so no harm done.

As for UKEssays being a scam site; I can confirm they are defo not a scam site. Infact, they are probably the only reputable company out there. I would personally recommend them. THey are expensive, but they are excellent.

Note:
If you pay for a piece of work and submit it, be prepared to feel paranoid alot of the time Lol One of the side effects unfortunately. My biggest fear is being found out. Which brings me to my next paranoid point.

When dealing with Custom Essays, they took a copy of my passport, bank card, signature, university log in details to access journals and a signed order form. Now, don't missunderstand me, I am not suggesting for a moment that these guys would do identity theft or anything like it. I don't think they would. However, they have enough inforamtion and proof to report me to my university for approaching such a service (even shows up on my bank statement). Their sales teamdid sound pissed off when I asked for a refund and I am worried/extremely paranoid that they would have dropped me in it for my troubles. This could be completely unfounded and the result of an over active imagination - which it most probably is, but since it is a concern, it is one I will post.

So here is my revised list of things to share next:
1. Will my university find out I've used a writing service for my dissertation
2. What grade will I be awarded for my dissertation

I will keep you up to date with any progress.

Sorry I didn't post sooner guys - been a very busy week!

Right...
Got my dissertation 24 hours early, here's my opinion.

GOOD POINTS

1. Got my 10,000 word dissertation 24 hours early
2. The format was great and it looks pro!
3. The word count was in the + or - 10% of the 10000 words
4. The use of tables and illustrations was good throughout
5. Data collection and analysis was just peachy
6. Paper answered the dissertation question
7. Good references
8. Very good customer service - polite, patient and have integrity. Nice bunch of people.

I would say this dissertation is 7/10, which is good considering I think my own efforts would have been a solid 5/10 - hence the need for a writer. Would have been a solid 8/10 if it included a full appendix, which it didn't, which brings me to the bad points.

BAD POINTS

1. No real Apendix to speak of (interview schedules, transcriptions etc). My writer did include a question air which was cool, but nothing else. Apparantely the writer is paid to do 10000 words, so that's what they do, 10000 words. (Actually mine done a lot more to be fair to her/him). So this means I have to purchase the appendix separately, which is not cool since I just paid £1300 for a dissertation! Never mind, I have written to them to enquire how much it would cost for these additionally pages and will post the response soon.

CONCLUSION

You get what you pay for. You pay peanuts, you get monkeys. You pay hard cash and you get a good service over all. Yes, a shed load of money, but if it helps me get on a graduate scheme that pays 22K, then it was a bargain at 10 times the price. All about cost/benefit analysis folks.

Anyway...

WHAT NEXT

Now my concerns are:

1. How much will the interview transcriptions cost
2. What grade will the dissertation achieve
3. Will I get caught by my university - probably the key issue really

I will post the answer to these questions as they are revealed.

Peace

I have found it damn near impossible to find a reliable review about any of these essays services, so I have decided to post my experience as it unfolds.

Experience to date:

My Dissertation Experience2 weeks ago I ordered a 10,000 word dissertation from CustomEssays.co.uk
I paid for the 10 day option at £660, when I got to the final stage of the checkout, it went up to £792 due to tax or something.

4 days into the 10 day order, my writer hadn't even started my dissertation.
The customer service team were all Ukrainian and spoke terrible English.
I was convinced my writer was also Ukrainian due to the badly written responses I got.
I requested a refund, and sure enough, they were true to their word and gave me a full refund.

I still needed a dissertation though...

I read a load of reviews on the web that suggested UKEssays.com would be better.
I purchased a 10,000 word dissertation to be done in 10 days at the cost of £1300 - including tax etc
I ordered this on Thursday 8th March 2012.
They got me a researcher sorted for the evening of March 9th 2012.
Next step: wait on writer sending 500 word summary within 24 hours.
This didn't happen, it is now 3:45pm on March 11th 2012.

Contacted UKEssays.com via the General Enquiries link with my order No. this morning, received no reply as yet.
I called the help line at 12 in the afternoon and hit option 4 "enquiry for current order" and the phone rang out.
I rang again and hit option 1 "for information and new orders" and got a response in 3 seconds.
*Shrugs - i am only presenting the facts.
Spoke to a really polite advisor who assured me he would contact my writer and be in touch.
Haven't heard from the advisor nor the writer.

I will keep this post updated with any progress and the final result.
I will let you guys know how this pans out and what the final piece of work turns out to be like.

That's a very kind offer writer, but I want to continue with UKEssays for the moment, thank you though.

Ok, so, I have some news.

UKEssays have been on the ball this morning.
I received 3 miss calls from them by 10am March 12th 2012.
The writer has posted the 500 word summary for my dissertation and it is truly excellent.
It looks like it might be written by a lecturer or post grad student.

I opted for the 500 word summary and to have my work delivered in sections as they are completed.
If the final piece of work is anything like the summary, then I shall be cheesing.

I shall keep you guys posted over the next few days.
